View Full Version : Any ideas what to do with this xl '57 panel? 72addict 04-16-2006, 10:03 PM This is a one ton extra long wheelbase gmc panel. All I can think of is stock. Am I a dinosour or what? :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :dum: :dum: :dum: 71swb4x4 04-16-2006, 10:05 PM Any pictures? Maybe a link? :D 72addict 04-16-2006, 10:07 PM Ya. Hold on a minute. I am slow too.

BrianJordan 04-17-2006, 01:44 AM maby chop it a little?? 72addict 04-18-2006, 10:05 PM Thanks for the ideas guys. Looks like I will have to imagine them for now. LOL 75Chevy90Kawi 04-22-2006, 10:29 PM i don't know what to do... but that is one kick ass truck! 72addict 04-22-2006, 10:35 PM I was thinking of putting a dana 60 front and dana 70 rear (that I happen to have in my possesion) under the stock frame and make it a 4x4. Only problem is that I want to keep the original motor and trans in it so I will need a divorced tcase. That would make the front driveshaft about 6-7 feet long. And it would sit about 4" higher than it is now. COWABUNGA !! :metal: :metal: :metal: 72CSTC5 04-22-2006, 11:40 PM Okay here it goes. Cut the hump out of the roof some. Do not chop the top though. Put a 55 chevy car front end like Chip Foose did on Overhaulin'. Mustang II ifs front end. 4link suspension in the rear and airbagged all the way around and tuckin 22" wheels all the way around. Paint it silver with black 22" wheels. 72addict 04-22-2006, 11:51 PM Yaaa!!! That sounds like the ticket. Post a pic so we can all see it. Thanks Frizzle Fry 04-27-2006, 01:06 AM Here's what I'd do: Shorten to Blazer or shortbed length, add a rear quarter window, wheels, and drop:cool: (some of these are also sectioned) Brainchild 04-27-2006, 02:58 AM I would go the other way with it.Leave it long,chop 3 inches out of the top,drop it,modern extendedcab frame,and drivetrain.That side is just begging fora mural of some kind too.Totally awesome blank canvas to work with though. 75Chevy90Kawi 04-27-2006, 06:16 PM brainchild's idea sounds great to me. maybe section a little though (if you're gonna chop it) so it doesnt look uneven. then i'd do the old automotive shop advertisement on the side. jay-dawg 04-27-2006, 06:27 PM I'd add baby moons and some wide whites on a black truck. paint the grill & bumper silver. hot rod stance. interior would be a contrasting color like lipstick red. if you don't go with windows in the rear, a nice company logo would look good. maybe some wood longboards on the top would cap it off. just my .02 jay darksidepres 04-29-2006, 03:29 PM here's an idea for ya. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c395/darksidepres/72addictcopy.jpg LONGHAIR 04-29-2006, 04:41 PM I haven't really decided on a paint scheme............those mottled colored pics are tough to make look good. |
